Geography
Vietnam covers an area of 330,363 sq. km and is
about as big as Italy or New Mexico. The country has
three main geographic regions - the tropical south
dominated by the Mekong River estuary, the dry
central region, and the more temperate north
comprising the River delta and mountain highlands.
Religion
Vietnam supports adherents of all the major world
religions, as well as followers of religions that are
peculiarly Vietnamese: Theravada and Mahayana
Buddhism, Protestant and Catholic Christianity,
Taoism, Confucianism, Islam, Cao Daism, Hoa Hao
and Hinduism. In addition spirit and ancestor worship,
To Tien, is also practiced. Confucianism is probably
the most pervasive doctrine of all.
Climate
Vietnam’s climate is very diverse because the
country covers a wide range of latitudes and
altitudes.
The North: The cold season is between November
and April when average temperatures are around
60°F/16°C and it is often wet and chilly. In the hot
period, between May and October, the average
temperature is about 86°F/30°C. The South: The
temperatures in the south are constant all year,
ranging from 77-86°F/25-30°C. The dry season is from
November to April and the wet period from May to
October.
People
Ethnic Vietnamese constitute almost 90 percent of
the population in Vietnam. Originating in what is
now southern China and northern Vietnam, the
Vietnamese people pushed southward over several
centuries to occupy the entire eastern seacoast of
the Indochinese Peninsula. Nearly 100 years of
French rule (1858-1954) introduced important
European elements, but the Vietnamese still attach
great importance to the family and continue to
observe rites honoring their ancestors, indicating the
persistence of tradition.
Manners
The Vietnamese used to greet one another by
clasping their hands, prayer-like, in front of their
faces and bowing slightly. Unfortunately, this
charming custom has been replaced by the
handshake. When trying to gain the attention of a
Vietnamese, try not to point or gesture excessively.
This is regarded as rude. Call out their names if
possible, if not beckon by using the whole hand,
palm downwards. Again, as in the other countries of
Southeast Asia, do not touch people on the head as
it is regarded as spiritually the 'highest' part of the
body. Expect to be the center of attention outside
Saigon, Hanoi and the main tourist centers. React
accordingly and be a good ambassador.

“This is a land of serene beauty, traditional charm and bustling industry. A great holiday
destination, Vietnam boasts a landscape of misty hills and tropical beaches, a fascinating
cultural heritage and a climate that ranges from the cool of the northern highlands to the
warmth of the South China Sea coast and the Mekong Delta”

a diverse heritage, dating back to the 16th and 17th century, when it was a major port for
Western, Chinese and Japanese traders. Today it is a thriving centre of traditional crafts and a
shopper’s paradise.
As all kind of transportations are banned in the old quarter of Hoi An, the best way to explore
the beauty of this port town is the walking tour. Besides visiting the old temples, the famous
Japanese bridge and some other well-known landscapes of Hoi An, the group also stops at
some ancient houses in Hoi An for tea to learn about the differences in architectures of the
Vietnamese, Chinese and Japanese in this port town. Lunch at local restaurant.

in the cooking lesson later.

Afterwards they will board the Red Bridge boat for a leisurely cruise (25 minutes) along the
Hoi An River to the Red Bridge Cooking School. This is a chance to view local river life and
enjoy the beautiful scenery.
On arrival, the group will explore the cooking school’s herb and vegetable garden, before
learning about some of Hoi An’s and Vietnam’s well-known dishes. The cooking lesson runs for
about 2 hours – each dish is first demonstrated by the Red Bridge chef’s, before the
guests prepare the same dish themselves. Furthermore a brief introduction to Vietnamese
food carving (plate decoration) is included in the course.
After the lesson, the guest can sit down together and enjoy the delicious meals they have
cooked for dinner.

before the guests sit on a short stool next to a young
worker who helps them make a small and typical
lantern that they can keep after the lesson. Lunch at local restaurant.

Afterwards, the group will be transferred back to Danang. The remaining day is free for leisure

Cham culture. Especially, the performance of the Apsara – stylish dances and the
